Chapter 4: Three Handsome Cousins

4. Encounter with a visit to East Street

Aso came to Aru's room and found that the size and furnishings here were basically the same as his own room, but the decoration was very careful, with embroidered gauze tents, and some beautifully framed embroidery frames hung on the wall and placed on the desk.

"My sister's room is so beautiful." Aso praised from the bottom of his heart.

"A lot of things here are embroidered by myself, and then framed by people, in fact, it is just idle and boring to pass the time, by the way, and clothes, to show you, I am actually not as good as Auntie said, I don't know how to make clothes, just modify the clothes, show off some things." With that, Aru went to rummage through the suitcase.

Asu also looked curiously, and suddenly saw a pair of dark gray trousers in Aru's clothes, because after coming here, the coats are all skirts, and the pants are just middle pants, or wide-legged underwear, and it is strange to see the small trousers that are a little similar to modern clothes, so he asked: "Sister, can these pants be worn outside?" ”

"Yes, this is a bearded outfit, you like it, and there is a dress to match, I will find it for you."

When Aru found a set and put it away, Asu's heart was overjoyed, and he immediately started Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, thinking that this set of clothes is quite suitable for physical exercise, and he can go out to exercise with this, and he doesn't have to hide at home and wear his middle coat and pants to do exercises.

Aru saw the liking in Asu's eyes, so she said: "Since my sister likes it, my sister will help you change the size and give it to you, anyway, I rarely wear this style of clothes." Gai Ming'er, I'll tell A-Niang, take you to the street to do a few more sets of this style, our Shuofang County is located in the northwest, there are many Hu people, and there are many Han people wearing Hu clothes. ”

That's what Aso was waiting for, "Then thank you, sister." After speaking, he jumped up and hugged Aru. Today is really rewarding, not only did I get the approval of A-Niang to go to the kitchen to study, but I also got a set of beautiful clothes.

With the support of a beautiful mood, Asu worked very hard to follow her sister and began to learn female red, although she pricked her fingers a few times, there was still a lot of smiles on her face, Aru only thought that she really had a strong interest in embroidery, and she was more happy in her heart, and she was more attentive to teaching, and she didn't care how bad this sister's basic kung fu was.

In the past few days, Asu's life has been stable and fulfilling, and on weekdays, he either goes to the kitchen to learn a little cooking skills from the cooks, or goes to Aru's room to see embroidery patterns and learn from girls to kill time, because Aru's clothes have not been changed, Asu can still only do exercises in the house to stretch his muscles. Although the uncle's family is also a big family, they don't get together to eat every meal, most of the time, they all eat in the house separately, because the age is relatively close, at the suggestion of Mrs. Wang, I also went to the little lady's house once, Ah Yue seems to be very happy about the visit of this young lady. The three Xiaolangjun have not seen each other again, Da Lang is on an errand in the army, Erlang is busy dealing with the Wuju people exam and goes to school all day long, San Lang is still studying in the state, and he only came back during the holidays, so naturally he didn't touch it.

On the morning of this day, Asu was doing exercises in the house in her middle coat and pants, Aru knocked on the door and came in, only to see her holding a burden, and said with a smile: "Asu, your clothes have been changed, let's change them now, I am telling you a good news, A-Niang gave the usual money, let Xiaoju go out with us, and make you a few new clothes by the way." ”

This is really good news, I have been here for so long, I haven't gone out to go shopping, although the Tang Dynasty is more open, but the little lady of the general big family still will not go out alone, usually as a companion, or with a maid. Coupled with the fact that he was not familiar with the place, Aso did not dare to go shopping alone.

After changing into Aru and bringing a bearded outfit, Asu only felt refreshing and neat, the top was a plain snow blue tight-fitting narrow-sleeved jacket, with dark gray small-mouth trousers, and a pair of black soft boots on his feet, Aru also praised it, and then taught Asu to learn from the appearance of a bearded girl, and braided her hair, which looked even more heroic.

Looking at Aru's tender cyan high-waisted skirt, with a snow-white shawl, and a tassel on her head, she only felt that she was beautiful and refined, showing everyone's beauty.

The two sisters took the maidservant Xiaoju out of the house with their hand, it was already more than three months of spring, the climate was not as steep as early spring, and the new green leaves of the trees began to stretch out, a scene full of vitality. Aru took Aso to the most lively East Street in the city, although it was still morning, there were already a lot of people on the street, and all kinds of shops also opened their doors to do business.

The first time Aso went out to shop, he was naturally dizzying, and he just felt that everything was quite novel. On both sides of the street, various shops and stalls are lined up, and shirtless beard masters, brightly dressed orchids, and jugglers solicit business from passers-by. People in a hurry on the road, people shopping, and people bargaining converge to form a vivid picture. The eyes are dazzled, and the nose can also smell all kinds of smells, including the aroma of steamed cakes and freshly baked cakes, the unique temperature of pepper and other spices passing by the spice shop, the fat powder fragrance of the rouge gouache shop, and the intoxicating aroma of wine in the hands of the orchid who sells liquor even more prominently.

Asu took his sister's hand, went to the Hu Bi stall to buy a few freshly baked Hu Biscuits, and then was attracted by the smell of the spice shop, and went to buy some spices for cooking, but he took pity on Xiao Ju, who had to be responsible for carrying things behind the two of them. Just as Asu was preparing to look at the rouge pollen shop again, Aru saw a satin coat shop with sharp eyes, so he couldn't help but pull Asu in.

This shop is quite large, with fashionable fabrics hanging on three walls, and two tall tables, on which there are also materials for guests to choose, and the guy at the door saw two exquisitely dressed ladies and maidservants, and naturally came forward with a smile; "Two little ladies, the latest batch of fabrics in our store, you have to come in and have a look."

"I'm going to make two clothes for my sister and see if you have the right fit." As she spoke, Aru took Aso's hand and entered the shop.

"I don't know whether the fabric is good or bad, my sister just picks it for me, I want to make a neat Hu suit, and then make a skirt as refreshing as my sister." Asu thinks that her sister's vision is good, and the female celebrity is good, and she is better than herself in terms of patterns and fabrics, so let her sister choose it for her.

The shopkeeper took Asu to measure his height with a smile on his face, and here Aru carefully selected the fabric on the desk, and discussed the color matching and specific style with the shopkeeper.

After a while, Aru set two high-waisted skirts for her sister, a bearded dress, Asu has great trust in her sister's vision, Aru is here to pay the bill with the shopkeeper, but Asu's eyes have already drifted to the street, thinking about what else to buy and eat.

Suddenly, she saw a somewhat familiar silhouette in the felt tent tea shop opposite, and then looked closely, this seemed to be the heroic second cousin, who was sitting there talking with a man at this time, and the man was sitting with his back to her, and he couldn't see his face, but felt that he was taller.

"Sister, look, is that a second cousin?" Atsu pulled Aru and pointed over to it.

"Yo, really, really, it's so rare, let's go over and say hello." Aju pulled Asu and left, and Xiaoju hurriedly followed with a large bag and a small bag.

Li Xiang was chatting happily with his friends, and suddenly saw the two little ladies walking towards him, and he was shocked, "Isn't this Aru and Asu?" Hurriedly got up, this friend naturally got up and turned around, only to see that he was about the age of a weak crown, with a black round head, and below it was a well-defined face with deep eyebrows.

"It turns out that Brother Yang is also here." Aru saw the young man and called out crisply. Asu on the side looked at it, it seemed that her sister and this person knew each other, and they had a good relationship.

"Sister Aru, I haven't seen you for some days, who is this little lady?" The man looked at Asu, who was standing beside Aru, dressed as a bearded man.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce, this is my sister Asu, who has been separated from us since we were children, and just came from her hometown last month." Asu, who was standing behind Aru, gently pulled her and let her stand side by side with her.

"Asu, this Langjun is a friend of the second cousin, and his father worked with his uncle-in-law in the army." Aru said to Aso with a smile, turning his head to look at Goro Fugu again.

"We don't have to stand here and talk, it's rare to meet two younger sisters on the street, Zuiyuexuan is in front, can we go there to drink tea?" Li Xiang saw that it was rare for everyone to get together, so he simply proposed to change places and continue to have a good chat.

After a short walk, the five of them arrived at the bottom of a large two-story restaurant, and the wine flag was displayed outside the window on the second floor, with three big characters written on a red background: "Drunken Moon Xuan". Aso remembered at this time that the fragrant roast leg of lamb last time seemed to be here when he heard what his second cousin said.

Li Xiang asked for a place on the second floor by the window, the four of them sat opposite each other, and Xiao Ju stood in the back and waited.

Aru took a breath, turned his head and said to Asu, "Asu, you remember the roast leg of lamb last time, it is the signature dish here, but in addition to that, the grape pulp and peach pulp here are also very famous. ”

"Sister Asu, what do you want to eat, just say, don't be polite to your cousin, do you want another roast leg of lamb?" Li Xiang looked at Asu, and couldn't help but think of the last time Asu ate a leg of mutton, and asked mischievously.

"Oh, no, I'll just drink the grape pulp." Remembering the last saliva swallowing incident, Aso blushed unconsciously and quickly replied.

"Okay, I'll order this too, what about the two of you?" Li Xiang turned his head to look at Aru and Fugu Goro.

"Peach Pulp"

"Peach Pulp"

The two men said both words at about the same time.

After speaking, Aru glanced at Goro, and his face suddenly turned red. Fugu Goro said with a generous smile, "It seems that Sister Aru and I have the same taste." ”

"I heard that there is a new master here, the knife work is good, let's try it, Xiao Er, and another plate of cut fish." Li Xiang instructed the guys on the side.

After a while, the man came up with four drinks and a plate of white and thin things.

Aso took a sip of this grape pulp, feeling sweet and sour, similar to the grape juice he used to eat, it seems that it was also popular to drink juice in ancient times, but the taste feels sour, next time I go to the kitchen to try to put some sugar, salt and other mixes. But what is this white, thin thing called a sliced fish? Next to the saucer, there are chopped green onions and garlic. Looking at the other three people with chopsticks to pick it up, it is translucent white.

What kind of food is this? Aso was embarrassed to ask, but just watched everyone eat with relish, and thought to himself, it seems that this ancient food has to be slowly recognized.
